65 Chevelle, 1/24 - Updated 06/03//26
 

Ok, so it's not in 1:1 scale! Money currently prohibits the 1:1 project, so I'm going to express myself in 1:24. [IMG]http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2...0-0005_IMG.jpg[/IMG]

This is the wheel tire combo..it's going to sport a fuel injected 502. In this one, you can see the mini tub in progress.[IMG]http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2...0-0004_IMG.jpg[/IMG]

Hope I can gain your interest...to help keep mine. I llok forward to your comments.

Thats a cool project I would love to get my hands on a 67 to try some things I might want to do to my 67 chevelle. Keep us posted with updates.

Pete,

I will keep the pics coming. you should pick up the Revell 67, it's a great kit. I have a couple of the 87 Grand National kits that are my test subjects.

where did you get the 65 kit? I haven't seen one except the wagon kit that I had a long time ago.

Tony this is a kit I've had around for years. It was released in the 90's as the stock Z16. Evil Bay is probably the only place to find one these days.

I wanna see some pics of the 1:1 Buick shown on your avatar.

I wish that was my Buick! Here's a link to the feature on it:

Well, maybe one day your will look like that, the flares are really sweet though.

Progress is slow, but I managed to flush all the mating surfaces on the resin 502 engine block.

I've also shaved the body of emblems and door handles.

I want the engine to look very industrial, give me some of your thoughts on colours.
